Plan your stay abroad well ahead (at least 2-3 months ahead) as you need to take care of important details – e. g. registration of your stay in IS MUNI system, arranging financial support of your stay, administrative issues regarding your work contract at MUNI, health insurance, etc.
Go through the following guiding documents and links and discuss the possibilities with your supervisor:

Also, see the options of financing of your stay at Centre for International Cooperation of MUNI.
Tip!:
The Faculty of Science announces a new type of scholarships for foreign stays and internships, so-called A6 scholarship: Primarily for a stay of 1 month (30 days) or longer. In justified cases, it is possible to provide a scholarship for a stay abroad of at least 14 days. The amount of the scholarship is usually CZK 1,000 – 100,000 depending on the destination country and length of stay.To some extent, the scholarship can be combined with other forms of travel support (as for example Erasmus+ program).

Writefull - a tool for checking your texts in English
PhD students of the Faculty of Science MUNI now have a tool for writing professional texts in English - the Writefull plugin.
It is an additional tool to Word and 3 other interfaces, which corrects the correctness of English and also modifies the scientific style of the text. Writefull is developed specifically for academic and non-academic researchers and students, its feedback is tailored to academic writing, and its use enhances the quality of scientific texts.
Writefull, unlike the more famous Grammarly, has the advantage that it does not store your texts, so its use is safer. Because this is relatively new software, your antivirus program may report a potential threat when you install it, but you don't have to worry about this warning.
